Did you use the --with-python option to configure script for mod_python when recompiling it? Did you ensure you did a full 'stop' of Apache and not just a 'restart' after having installed new mod_python.so? Is the mod_python.so using Python as a shared library or a static library? Run 'ldd' on mod_python.so to work out if using shared library. Since you have Python 2.5 installed in non standard place, did you modify 'envvars' file in same directory as Apache executable and set PATH in it so that Apache would find 'python' in /usr/local/bin before that in /usr/bin? Did you check the Apache error logs to see what messages mod_python output about version being used or warnings about version mismatches? FWIW, you may want to swap to using mod_wsgi instead. At least it documents these sorts of issues properly whereas it isn't documented anywhere for mod_python. For mod_wsgi documentation related to same problems see: http://code.google.com/p/modwsgi/wiki/InstallationIssues Graham --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
